Put all ingredients into blender and whirl until smooth. You can add more milk a tablespoon at a time to reach desired consistency.

Homemade pumpkin puree

Preheat oven to 325 degrees.

You can use unpeeled nectarines, but you should blend them with half the milk first before adding remainder of ingredients.
(You can use regular yogurt but you should add a scoop of protein powder to replace the greek yogurt)

Nectarines provide some vitamin A 9%, vitamin C 15%, and dietary fiber 10%. % based on a 2000 calorie diet. Your daily requirements may be higher or lower.

There are a lot of “fad” or “crash” diets out there that promise that you’ll find a way of losing 10 pounds easily.

I tried some of them and in my experience the weight always comes back as soon as you go off the diet some weight loss tips given are not something that will work with your body. One thing you do not want to do if you are truly serious about losing weight is to follow these fad diets and their ridiculous weight loss tips. After their ineffectiveness has been proven time and time again, people still want a quick fix, and head on the search for a new trend. Lets be honest, people are always searching for new weight loss tips because they want to lose pounds and they want immediate results, but this is just wishful thinking. If you use a crash diet, starvation diet, zero calorie diet, etc. not only will you be seriously compromising your health, but you have a 90% chance of regaining the weight you lost within a month and around a 70% of gaining more than you lost.

To lose weight permanently and effectively is a rather slow progress, according to your metabolic rate and how much you lose. However, there is evidence of proven weight loss tips to help in the process of losing weight, and I can familiarize you with them.

REMEMBER! If you’ve made no effort, the weight WILL come back eventually.

Weight Loss Tip 1
Do not skip breakfast. Whatever else you do or don’t do, you MUST follow this advice, because otherwise it is much more likely to be a factor in binging later in the day. Eating a good breakfast within 45 minutes of waking up sets your metabolism into overdrive all day. Even more so if you manage to get in 15 mins of cardio before you eat. Skipping breakfast moves your metabolism into sluggish mode so even if you eat a good lunch, you’re grazing/craving all late afternoon and evening.

Weight Loss Tip 2
Don’t consume food for 2 hours before going to bed. Anything you eat in this time will convert to body fat.

Weight Loss Tip 3
Do not snack while watching TV. It is acceptable to eat a meal while watching television, but it is never acceptable for snacking. Always snack where you can track what you are eating. If you absolutely must snack during tv watching, ONLY bring an acceptable amount of food. 1 apple, 1 cookie, etc. You should never consume more than around 200 calories for a snack (including your beverage).

Weight Loss Tip 5
Substitute honey for sugar and carob powder for chocolate in all recipes. These taste just as good if not better, when used correctly. Replacing white flour with wheat flour is a huge help too if you can.

Weight Loss Tip 6
Eat more vegetables. There are many many recipes using vegetables that can be found in cookbooks or on the internet. Sneak veggies into things where you wont notice. Add grated carrots, squash, or zucchini to spaghetti sauce for example. You wont even notice a flavor change.

Weight Loss Tip 7
Avoid foods high in calories. Instead try a nutrient rich, sweet tasting smoothie, or a salad not rich in calories, for example, try cottage cheese or yogurt to improve the taste of salads and take off the pounds.

Weight Loss Tip 8
Exercise for at least half an hour every day for four days a week. This doesn’t HAVE to be a solid half hour. You can break it into 10 or 15 minute increments. Biking on a stationery bike while reading is a great way to go, or put a tv in front of the treadmill, or walk with your e-Reader. In conclusion, there is nothing to prevent you from losing weight except yourself.
